The ZonePRO 1261 is a digital zone processor that features twelve-channels of input and six-outputs. The unit is suitable for installation in restaurants, fitness centers, nightclubs and any other situation that requires multiple-zone control of audio sources with paging features. The ZonePRO 1261 has no front panel control and requires a computer for initial set-up.

   
The processor provides two balanced inputs with eight pairs of analog RCA line inputs, with each pair internally summed to mono. An RCA coaxial S / PDIF digital input is also available. Outputs are available via Euroblock terminals and can be configured as either stereo or mono. A DB-9 connector is located on the front panel for connecting to a computer.

The included Windows based control software communicates with the unit via RS-232 or Ethernet. Processor blocks, including high-pass filtering, parametric EQ, compression, limiting, gating, AGC, ducking, de-essing, Advanced Feedback Suppression (AFS), notch filters, signal routing , bandpass filtering, delay and polarity. An AutoWarmth module provides gentle bass boosting as signal levels are lowered.

The ZonePRO 1261 really shines when used with optional remote wall-mount controllers that can be located within the various zones. The wall-mounts are able to provide local volume control or scene selection, depending on the type of controller installed. A built-in real-time clock can provide programmable system changes throughout the day or week. All program memory is non-volatile, ensuring program security in the event of power failure or computer malfunction.

Note: Stereo sources and stereo output can be configured using the control software.
